Princess Elsa star is the big cheese at her hen do

WEST End star Samantha Barks, who will be slicing wedding cake this week, looked like she was practising with cheese at her hen party.

The 31-year-old actress, who plays Princess Elsa in Disney’s £10 million stage production of Frozen, wore a white dress and a pearl- encrusted cap with ‘Bride’ written on it. ‘There is nothing like having a wedding to highlight all of the wonderful people in your life who show up for you,’ says Barks, who played Eponine in the Oscar-winning film version of Les Miserables. She’s due to marry U.S. actor Alex Stoll, whom she met when they both appeared in Pretty Woman in New York, in days.

DOES Prince Charles have a sidehustle with Diana Ross, who closed the Platinum Jubilee concert to his evident delight?

The Motown queen, whose Upside Down made the heir to the throne’s list of favourite dancing tracks, names ‘Prince Charlez’ as background vocalist and co-writer of her new song, Come Together. The diva’s representatives confirm Prince Charlez is an alias — but for Charles Hinshaw, an American R&B songwriter and producer.

Perhaps Hinshaw, who was raised in the gangster-rap capital of Compton, Los Angeles, styles his adopted name ‘Charlez’ to avoid confusion over engagements with his namesake?
